To (LU whom, it may concern,.-

lBe it known that l, DILLON BEEBE,'a citizen ofthe United States, residing at Newark, in thocounty of Essex and Stateof New Jersey, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in a Combined Faucet Attachment, Bung, and Bush; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, suchas will enable others skilledin the' art to which it apf pertains to make'and use the saine.

.\l y invention relates Ito an. improvement in a combined metallic faucet attachment, bung and bush to be used in barrels or casks" containing liquids, and has for its object 't0-provide' a faucet attachment, bung' and bush which is durable and strong, simplel and inexpensive-in construction, and effective in operation. y The invention consists in the details of construction as more fully hereinafter described and claimed. It is illustrated in the-accompanying drawings in whichj 1 Figure 1- is a longitudinal sectional view of a barrel showing lmy improved faucet 'atv tachment, bung and bus'h alsoin section, thel faucet being screwed in and thereby opened' so that the liquid can dow into the same from the barrel. Fig-2, isa similar view showing the fncet closed; Fig. 3;- a detail view of the bushing; Fig. 4-'a 'detail of sleeve and- Fig. 5- a detail of the plug which screws intoA the inner, end of the-faucet. I

In the drawings A represents a bari-chaud B the head thereof, C the bushing which is drivenpor forced into a, suitable hole in the, same and having on its outer portion aflange a. which fits into a. correspondinf recess d in the head of the barrel. The exteriqr c`ircum' ference of the body b of the bushing is. pro-Y vided with spring barbsc which when the bushing is driven into the head'of the barrel securely'hold the ssmeagainst withdrawal. The inner circumfereuceof ,the bushing is screw-'threaded exce t at its outer end where an annular groove is formed.` j

D is a sleeve screw-threaded on its outer tertight joints. i

circumference,for `the purpose of engaging the 'screw-threads on the inner circumference of the bushing. The said sleeve is provided with 'flange e, on its outer end which is seated in the groove d, of the bushing, and thus it vwill be seen that the o uter and inner faces of the sleeve and bushing are fiush with eachother and the head of the barrel.'l

thjojz sleeve for the purpose of furnishing means for graspingr and unscrewing the same when its removal is desired for the purpose of 'flushing thev barrel.

E is a faucet-whichl is exteriorlyand inte riorly screw-threaded ouA its inner 'end and provided with inlet hole or aperture g, to perinit the liquid to iiowvthrough'the saine from .the barrel into the faucet.

5f is an annular flange adapted 4to fit into an annular recess f2 in the 'sleeve D. The

screw-threads ou the exterior surface of the lfaucet engage with the interior screw-threads of the sleeve D. y l i Q F is a plug having ascrewdhreaded shank h projecting outwardly therefrom to engage the screwthreads on the interior of the fau- 'cet E. p ,I

, 1,15-, are screw-threaded shoulders oil the on the interior ofthe sleeve.

l, is a projection on the inner surface of the head of the plug F to adord a grasping snrface so that the plug can be readily'removed. 'm are circular packingy rings made ot' rublthe abutting surfaces bf. the bushing, sleeve, faucet and plug to insure perfect air and wa- 'The operation is as follwsz--The bushing C is driven into lthe barrel, the-plug inserted into the sleeve, the sleeve inserted into the bushing and the faucet inserted into 'the sleeve and screwed entirely up on. the shank 'of the plug F. Then thef'faucet is screwed arelugs projecting frbm the outer face of ber or other suitable'material placed between iutc the barrel until the annular shoulder f .seats in the slot f2, in the sleeve and thus cominunication is established with the `contents ofthe barrel through the inlet-hele g. lYhen it"is,desired to remove the faucet from the barrel it is only necessary to unscrew the sleeve from the bush. To discontinue the said plug F which engage the-screw-threads.

fiow of liquid into the faucet it is screwed outwardly until the inlet hole g is closed by passingr into or beyond the sleeve.

Having thus described my invention, what Iclaim is' l'. In an apparatus for drawing liquids, the combination of a' faucet provided with an inlet hole' and an annular-shoulder, and having its inner end .exterorlytnd interiorly 2., The combination of the bushing C, hav-` ing its exterior circumference provided with an annular ange a," and bar terior with scre'wlthreads an( cess or groove drwith the sie with an annular -ange e, lu; threads on its outer surface of engaging the-screw-thread of bushing C, and 'its inner mit vided with screw-threads, am cess at each end of said scei cet' E, having exterior and threads on its inner ends'an plug with screw-threaded sh to engage the screw-thread o1 the faucet, and 'screw-thread k, to engage the screw-threat D, anda.' projection l, on th plug, substantially as descrih In testimony whereof I aix presence ofl two witnesses.
